My dome light is staying on as are the lights in the key holes on my door (green lights) and the ignition light too. Also the horn went off randomly and the door locks work sporadically as well. I was reading on another thread that the light issue could and probably is the "remote control unit" in the trunk neat the antenna. Can anyone tell me where I can find this part for sale as my attempts have been unsuccessful. Also could the door locks be part of this issue.
On another note, my rear defrost, cruise control and horn (when pressing it) do not work either. Any ideas there, bad relay, ect..?
Thanks for any help you can give!!!

Suspect there is a timer/relay involved, as lifting front door handles with the doors closed and locked is supposed to turn ON the dome, door key and ignition key lights, before they gradually dim and go out completely.

Problems with our door lock timer caused the door locks to open and close at random times, ocassionally when going over bumps or closing a door.

You should be able to simply turn the dome light OFF, using the dome light switch. Had some problems with our dome light as painted interior roof surfaces behind it prevented it being properly grounded. There should be copy of the FSM online.
